About this piece
Daiwa Morethan Groovin 70HS is a sinking minnow designed for shallow water day games, supervised by renowned shallow angler Katsumi Yamauchi. Its variable action shifts with retrieve speed: a slow retrieve elicits a sinking pencil-like swing, while a fast retrieve produces a high-pitch tight wobble roll. The compact, high-density body offers excellent castability, rivaling vibration baits, while the lip aids in depth control and snag avoidance.
